JUST look at there eyes. You can see so much kindness and positive energy. It's a joy for USA and whole world. I LOVE THEM.

[@sandeep1970]

Great background -- see Barack's personality in how he interacts w/ his girls, Michele, and how he talks about Jonas Brothers. This man will go down in history as one of our most dynamic, charismatic, and personable presidents ever. Mark my words.

[@Pheorach]

His daughters are so adorable ^_^ The warmth this family shares is so wonderful.

[@jmlw3]

he is so calm and collected, what a wonderful man.

[@0nLybLinq]

barack & his wife .. they're so warm hearted .. not conceited .. i love em ♥

[@LuxeLifestyle]

This is Sooo Soo SOoo Inspirational, I've watched it 3 times, I Love it when he seems sooo focused and deep in thought right before he takes the stage in front of Millions.

[@mooshimashiroom]

I can feel that he really loves expressing his true self which is a good thing, it does pull the all the americans closer to him. :D

[@nataskaos]

And THIS is why I love Barack. when he speaks, I feel like he is being real. he really loves this country and wants it to be where it needs to be. Obama 08!

[@hlb48]

Man I have watched this video 10 times now and cried every time.

[@DeeHarrPhD]

This is the nicest video i have seen in a long time. It could have been all cheesy and staged looking but it made me feel so warm inside. They are a normal, funny, down to earth family and i love the fact the 2 girls were getting the surprise visit to see the JoBros. Go Obama! Ireland supports you.

[@ngibarra]

I can't help but be moved and inspired by Barack Obama. The way he has brought millions of people together and has inspired a nation, is truly something that will always be remembered in history. I am proud to be living in these times, to witness a great man and a great leader.

[@tuukee317]

they're just normal people like all of us!!! i love this i pray we make it through the day!!!

[@CindyPDX]

I love this video! I laughed and cried watching this. Thank you so much for sharing!

[@xxmdogxx1ify1]

people don't get excited for excitement itself they get excited for a purpose and that purpose is good.

[@veggievampire]

He's beautiful . . . I teared up watching him see Michelle speak.

[@Obaasima526]

Amazing. I am floored. I cannot say enough about this brilliant family. Best convention ever!

[@superman11978]

Great behind-the-scenes look - something we never usually see, and something that could re-assure a lot of people about how genuine Obama is.

[@Joyce51]

I still love this one, especially the end with barack and joe messing up lol

[@texasdebs]

Oh! So sweet, so lovely. Thanks for letting us see these real moments.

[@sign543]

Never have I had this much hope for our future. This family represents hope for our economy, our foreign relations, our healthcare, alternative energy and all the things that are important to the American people.

[@Axekick11]

Very true, you cannot fake a beautiful, sincere and loving family. Nor can you have one unless you are every bit as respectable as the family you love.

[@mrbradg]

Great video and a look inside. Amazing. Shows how real they are.

[@coolpixn2]

All of them are so down to earth :)...it's no wonder they inspire and get people to act...

[@dfarmer1584]

I loved this behind the scenes look. It was wonderful. For the first time in my life (I'm a 38 year old, life-long Democrat) I am genuinely confident, and excited about the Democratic ticket. These men WILL lead us into a new era. {...}

[@mllemartini]

Dear Barack, Michelle, Joe, Jill, Sasha, Malia, and all your team - WE LOVE YOU ALL - keep up the good work. Beautiful video. Thanks.

[@GreenLiteProductions]

I am so moved by this candidate. Never before has there been such a chance for real change. Good luck, and God speed!

[@LiveToThink]

TRULY an inspirational individual. From inspiring children to be what they dream, to older adults trying to channel his confidence and self-awareness. I already voted for Barack. Amazing skills. Amazing.

[@chaddy91]

they are the greatest couple!!

[@glassjar]

Lol, I think it was his daughter who listens to them. It shows at they have such a strong relationship that they can discuss these things. I know my dad wouldn't care about what I was listening to, no matter how much we love each other. It's just amazing how close his family is. Truly an inspiration.

[@Marzies54]

Wow. I watched pretty much all of the convention and felt great joy and hope. It seems like so long ago, but it's so uplifting to see it again now in the home stretch. Gives me the motivation to go out there and work my tail off for the Obama/Biden campaign for these last twenty something days!

[@gpfam]

Obama, you're what america has been waiting for, u have my support!!

[@djbigron]

YOU GO BARRY!!!! Thank god someone from the midwest!!! May god bless you Barry!!

[@raymarek]

fantastic video. A president giving a backstage clip lets people get to know him "off guard", which is fantastic way to show how he acts off duty.. Love the video. Wish we could see more of these to get to know them better.

[@peace1970haileybury]

This is wonderful, my favorite parts are when Barack is watching Michelle's speech and before he gives his acceptance speech...you can see on his face that he knows the full weight of the job he is about to do....such a courageous wonderful human being..... Obama/Biden

[@Kat51]

Makes me more determined to vote for "That One" Beautiful video of a beautiful group of people

[@bleumedley]

Im tearing with Joy

[@stollerson]

Absolutely beautiful!

[@EclipseJKF]

This was a great video on how down to earth this family and their counterparts are. This is my president and I am proud to support him.

[@nubianlegalmind]

My heart is so full after watching this. It is so nice to see GOOD people wanting to do GOOD things for America.

[@SpiritualAtheist]

It was kind of nice getting to relive that week for just a few minutes. And I loved the bloopers at the end.

[@marshallguy301]

Can I just say...I love this man and voting for him will be one of the proudest days of my life!

[@chili522]

I am thrilled to share this moment in history. We are with you all the way and will stand with you during your administration. I can't wait for the election!!!

[@cristouf4]

I am with you for America and for the world. Peace from Europe!

[@margherita23]

this video touched me so much!! I love you guys!!!

[@CoolBreeze149]

Love this video. May God speed him in his journey to the White House, and guide him every step of the way.

[@RomanTheMan]

Wow the end was really funny! "okay this time we're gonna do it"

[@hi5dud3n355]

I cracked up when Obama was talking about his daughter and the Jonas Brothers! They are all so wonderful.

[@firstblackman]

loved the ending.. when you're in a laughing moment it's hard to remember or get lines right

[@JKB76]

I love this. We are so priviliged to be living at this time where hope rises from uncertainty and fear. I can't wait to cast my vote.

[@Typokween]

Amazing video. The editing was great. I think the end was hilarious. :)

[@1bulma1]

his dughters must adore him and how could they not

[@mike50333]

Those kids are so stinking cute...I wanna be young again! *cries*

[@planet7663]

thank you for this!!

[@tednottodd]

Walking out to what could arguably be the most important speech of his life, and his youngest daughter asks him what his favorite color is.....How can anyone not be inspired by this great American family?

[@Danovio]

shes really nice not like other frist ladys who are very stiff and boreing

[@Sveniboydeluxe]

Best president ever ♥♥♥♥

[@bennykennedy1671]

Just one word... BRILLIANT!

[@charbax]

This is the best campaign video yet!! The young guys making this video are cool. This is what KZbin campaign videos should look like!

[@mrsnet]

Loved this.Thanks.

[@hlb48]

Where are my comments...I have watched this video 10 times now and cried every time.

[@r0cj0c]

I watch videos of him and realize he is a real man and has a real beautiful family!!!

[@Insanelycool]

Love the outtakes at the end! I am so excited to see this day finally come when we can move forward into a more open and honest government! We are all counting on you Obama and Biden, don't let us down! Our future is riding on the choices and the changes you make! I know I won't turn away after this election, let us know what we can do to help once you win! Now lets get out there and vote our hopes and our hearts! Much love you guys!

[@AurosHarman]

I love the last few moments -- it's great seeing how, even at a moment of great triumph, Obama and Biden still have a sense of humor, a sense of their own humanity. That's going to be a major change from the dead-certain lunatics of the past eight years. And they really enjoy working together. They're going to make a great executive team.

[@abishopobispo]

What a beautiful piece. Keep running a great campaign Barack.

[@remoney]

This is so good I favorited it.

[@vivcat]

What a wonderful moment in history! HOPE AND CHANGE is on its way.

[@princeword]

probably the best piece of film yet from this channel, the Jonas bro discussion backstage was really something I would like to see McCain try to copy, and I'll bet you 5 dollars, ha ha

[@TravelerAlexander]

I Think the whole world will be relieved when this man get into office. He's bringing back the great image of an intelligent and passionate leader that we neeeeeeeeeeeed

[@CharlesEmeka]

Barack,Joe,jill,michelle and all those involved in the campaign. I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for the transparency and honesty. Thank you for being real.Thank you for leadership and may God give you all the insight and wisdom to bring about change for real. No weapon formed against you shall prosper. May heaven continue to smile on you

[@CoolBreeze149]

Love this video ! It shows the " human touch " that Obama has always tried to show to us right from the start. May God speed him in his journey to the presidency and guide him every step of the way.

[@Axekick11]

We are on that mission now. Thank you for the support from Ireland.

[@bcdoula]

This is awesome!!!

[@enasstinah]

What a lovely video I looooved the bloopers at the end :D

[@the90sguy]

the most important person of our time : barack obama

[@MadamTampini]

Michelle is an amazing woman. It's too bad she's not part of the deciding parties in politics. She's so well spoken compared to honestly everyone on TV right now, and she's very smart.

[@asdjrocky]

What a great American family they are! Our country is facing a lot of problems, it's going to take a lot of work to get us back on track, and these are the people willing to do the hard work that is needed. Great vid.

[@00simplyme00]

Amazing!It's nice to see a glimpse of what goes on off the stage. DNC 2008 will definately be remembered for years to come. It is one of those moments that I will remember for the rest of my life not just what I saw but the emotions that were all consuming.God bless the Obamas and the Bidens and God bless America! Obama08

[@seanpowless]

Remarkable video, I can not wait till Nov. 4.

[@lordcron]

Obama said it himself and I believe it with all my heart. I have put all my time and energy into this dream to make it a reality. "We are the change we been looking for." I believe that.... Change won't happen by sitting and hoping. Change is hard work to make the world move in direction you have to will it thru blood, sweat and tears. Let's go chance the world. Obama/Biden08!

[@omarieswifey]

wow watching this snippet of the convention makes me want to cry all over again

[@akrinst]

Beautiful, moving and real. This is a tonic after all the awful nonsense being spouted in the media. I've never been so inspired by a candidate and his team.

[@FreakOfMeds]

From 9:02 to 10:30 is probably the most telling clip I ever so of Obama yet. He sounds so real, funny and down to earth.

[@Navajoy]

Barack Calls out the Best in many of Us. On Nov 5th the work advances, to reaching across the perceived divide to our fellow Americans who are afraid of this Change.

[@moongr]

That was a great video, I cried 3 times.

[@StevenZiegler]

I feel like I am watching our generation's Franklin Roosevelt. I feel privileged to be alive at this moment in history. Although I have always been proud of my country, I have never been more proud then now.

[@SydneyGoldstein]

ahaha Jonas Brothers, how cute! this is just great :]

[@akvalues]

CAN'T WAIT TO VOTE!! WOOT WOOT!

[@stimulationii]

amazing video. CLASSIC

[@kingst21]

I think the song is called "City of blinding lights" by U2 I'm not sure though, but it something like that

[@Lordy2k]

Here here!

[@franitube]

Watching this video, I really feel like we're witnessing history in the making. Obama may lack experience, but he's so passionate about what he believes in, it really inspires me. And I feel blessed to be able to see someone who could (and hopefully WILL) be the first black president in the history of the United States. Thank you, Obama for giving a renewed hope to Americans. We can change...

[@CoolBreeze149]

I couldn't agree more !

[@bfayer]

great video, behind the scenes is a lot of fun

[@franitube]

"I will! Cause I'm nice!"

[@coolpixn2]

All of them are so down to earth :)...

[@rpr8]

Touching. Keep up man.

[@Karkar82]

This election is so nerve wrecking! He has to win!

[@sugirav]

He's just the coolest person ever, great vid ;)

[@reddragonfly]

You have our full support, our prayers, and our hope in the American future. Go Obama/Biden!

[@oelergodt]

i liked the part about the $5 bet
